Ally has always wanted to leave her mark not only on the game, but on the world around her. The MG3 Foundation exists to open doors everywhere, like soccer did for Ally. MG3 is a way to do more, give back and turn the beliefs that guide her life into action.
The MG3 Foundation exists because everyone is Made for More. We help people recognize that truth and discover how to live it, in sport and beyond, by providing foundation, connection, and opportunity.
More than their doubts. More than their circumstances. More than the systems that were never built with them in mind.
Ally lovingly called her grandmother "MG." A teacher by profession and a giver by nature, she spent her life helping others believe in what was possible for them.
MG once told Ally that if she could have chosen any path, she would have been a philanthropist. What she may not have realized was that she already was one. Her generosity wasn't measured by money, but by the time, encouragement and care she gave to others.
That's where MG3 gets its name — "MG" for her, and the 3 for the three gifts she gave Ally to carry forward: Grit, Grace, and Good.
The MG3 Foundation carries that spirit forward in everything it does.
Everyone deserves someone in their corner who says, “You can.” MG3 champions confidence first. Belief in yourself is often the first step toward becoming more of who you are. And believing in yourself starts with a strong foundation - nourishment, well-being, and opportunities to learn and lead.
The game is where community happens. Personal growth happens through connection — knowing you have a place and people who believe in you. MG3 helps create opportunities to play, learn and grow — regardless of cost, circumstances or doubt — all while inspiring each other to create that same sense of belonging for others.
The goal was never just soccer. The opportunity to play builds grit, leadership and life skills that carry beyond the field and into classrooms, careers and communities. Sports are a springboard to learn life’s biggest lessons.
A little more good, in motion
Small actions can create more possibility. Here’s how MG3 is putting foundation, connection and opportunity into action.
Partnering with organizations that give girls places to play, people in their corner and opportunities to grow through sport — both on and beyond the field.
Classroom sessions complement time on the field with practical learning around recovery, nutrition, leadership and essential life skills — helping girls take what they learn through sports into whatever comes next.
Removing economic barriers by providing equipment and resources to help more girls get into and stay in the game.
Helping young people build relationships that help them believe, belong and become — learning how to find, connect with and develop meaningful relationships with mentors who can guide and support them, while also discovering how they can carry those lessons forward by becoming mentors and lifting others along the way.
Providing families a nourishing holiday meal - creating space around their table to connect, reflect and dream about what’s next, while also providing volunteers with a meaningful opportunity to connect with one another and nourish their own spirits.
